What True Merit Will Do.

:, The unprecedented sale of Boschee's Ger
man Syrup within a few years, has astonished
the world. 1t is without doubt the safest
and best remedy ever discovered for the
speedy and effectual cure of Coughs, Colds
and the severest Lung troubles. 1t acts on
an entirely different principle from the usual
prescriptions given by Physicians, as it does
not dry up Cough and leave the disease
still in the system, but on the contrliy re-
rnovessthe cause Of the trouble, heals the
parts affected and leaves them in purely
healthy condition. A bottle kept in the
house for use when the diseases make their
appearance, will save doctors bills and a
long spell of serious illness. A trial will
convince you Of these facts. 1t is positively
sold by all druggists and general dealers in
the land. Price, Is cts. large bottles.

ANNOUNCEMENT EXTRAORDINARY.
Something fog the Trading Public to Read
and Consider.

While we sell goods cheap, they are
in fact not cheap goods, as some of
our would be competitors would have
YOU believe. We have no old time
honored, stock-worn goods to close
OFT at cost or 10 per cent. above cost,
but we have the real solid valuables
bought for the metallic cash, on sale
10 to 20 per cent. less than Our long
winded competitors can buy We do
not hesitate to say yes, we buy goods
from the red flag where the credit
mans name is worthless. We thereby
get the same goods at 40 to so per
cent. less than he promises to pay. We
do not restrict our customers to cents
worth or pins or needles; the more
we sell the better we like it. Nor do we
sell goods for less than cost-as some
others claim, to do: We make a
small, fair profit on all our goods
cheap as they are. The secret of this
is there is money and brains enough
in our concern to enable us to buy so
as to sell cheaper than -,long-winded
concerns. Come and see for yourself
and be convinced of the genuine bar
gains to be had at the Racket Store. l."

HENDERSON FEMALE COLLEGE.-We
take pleasure in directing attention to the
advertisement of the Henderson Female
College, Rev. J. NJ. Rhodes, president,
which appears in this issue. The opening
session begins Wednesday, February End.
In this the GOLD LEAF is about to witness
the elimination of what has been to it a
long cherished object-a female school OF
high grade in Henderson. Certainly this
is most excellent location for such an in
stitution and we see no reason why the
school may not be at least the equal Of any
i'm the State And this We have no doubt it
will be. Our people have worked with
great unanimity for the success of the en-
| tarprise so far and knowing them as we do
we do not hesitate to say they will con-
| tinue to do so.
The new college building is one Of the
handsomest in town, we'll and substantially
built, and in every way is admirably suited
for the purposes for which it is intended.

DEATH OF GEN. w. B. HAzEN.-The dis
patches Monday morning announced the
death of Gen. w. B. Hazen, Chief Signal
officer of the U: S. Army. He was widely
known as "Old Probabilities, succeeding
to that title upon the death of Gen. Myer.
For some weeks Gen. Hazens health had
been poor and he was on leave of absence,
Capt. A. W. Greedy discharging his duties.
Now we know why it is we have been
having no weather lately-or rather all
sorts of it,-when it should have been given
to us straight. With Vennor, land Virgins,
and Hazen all gone the weather depart
ment seems to be getting in bad state.
